Not to be a buzz-kill here, but margaritas are about as fattening as libations come. Laden with sugar and empty alcohol calories, a restaurant margarita can pack as many as 500 calories into a single salt-rimmed glass. We know, we know—but they taste so good! To satisfy your margarita fix on Cinco de Mayo without busting your diet, whip up one of these Spry-approved margarita recipes, which have significantly fewer calories and sugar than the traditional stuff. Cucumber, mango, blackberry, traditional—we've got margs in all flavors and varieties, so pick your poison.
